[Drabble] Adventerous!Salome & powered_otaku

[sweetsalome]

        “Cliff diving, in Acapulco?”  Hiro gives her a look as if she’s lost her mind, it’s not an uncommon look, but she still gets frustrated when she gets it. 

        “It’s not like I am asking you to walk across hot coals, plus we’re with a group!”  Oh yes, the local who looked like a bum but was highly recommended by one of the hotels in town.  That really doesn't make him feel better about the situation, especially not after the waivers they have to fill out.

        “Hey, I ate the intestines when we were in China,” she reminds him, leaning over to take a peek off the side of the cliff at the crashing waters below them.  Grabbing her, he tugs the blond back to stand beside him, on solid ground.

       “Yes, but pig intestine will not kill you!  This could kill you!”  He was pained to even have to explain this to her.  “I do not understand why you are surprised at my response.”

Turning to him, she puts her hand on her hip and gives him a very serious look.  “I’m not going to die, I’m going to live to be a thousand years old,” for some reason the number keeps going up when she speaks to him.  “And you are too, which is why it’s perfectly safe to jump.  Nothing can go wrong.”

 “That’s not even logical; do you know how crazy you sound sometimes?”  But she is grinning, and despite the death jump in front of him, he manages a slight smile as well.

The trainer explains how to correctly jump, and that there would be a boat that would collect you after you surfaced.  After joking that he had never lost a person . . . yet, he asks the group to form a queue.  When there was only one other person in front of her, Salome begins to get a little nervous. 

Turning to Hiro, she sighs and takes him by his shoulders.  For a long time she doesn't say anything, just looks deep into his eyes as if she is searching for something.  Grinning she leans up and kisses him quickly, “I’ll see you at the bottom, okay?”

Before he can say a word, or pull her back, she steps away and disappears off the edge of the cliff.  The instructor motions for Hiro to come forward, as he moves he seriously wonders what possessed him to go along with this idea.  There was no turning back now, and at the signal, he jumps.

He chuckles a little. "Now we need the shower again." He gathers her in his arms and suddenly they're back under the water which still smells faintly of lotion and coconut.

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

The water startles her and she gasps, jumping a little in his arms before laughing and giving him a look. "You need to give me some warming, my darling." Grabbing the shampoo she rubs some between her palms and starts washing his hair.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"I keep forgetting." He takes the bottle from her and squirts some on his hands to start on her hair. "I love being able to do this. It's a bit startling for everyone else, but it feels so natural to me. But I will be good and warn you. Unless the situation is dire and I have no time to explain. But then I will explain after we escape."

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

Giggling, she enjoys washing his hair while he washes hers. She wiggles her hips and steals kisses before nodding at his words, when she rinses off her hands she pauses. "You liked what we did in bed? Rough like that? Sometimes I get a little out of control and I wasn't sure . . . Not every one likes it I know."

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

His expression just melts. "Like it? I love it. Tie me down. Make me helpless. It is one of my...kinks, is that the right word?" He continues to rub her head, massaging the shampoo into her hair thoroughly. "I love when you talk to me like that."

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

"Really? I didn't peg you as a submissive. Yes, it's a kink. I like it too, both ends, being dominate and submissive." Her eyes close and she grins broadly, silently thanking whatever deity brought them together. "You don't mind pain, or talking dirty . . . or using degrading words? I want to know everything you like."

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"I suppose I am a submissive. I like powerful ladies. I love all of it - the words, the pain - maybe not too much - your taking command of me. I like wrestling. But no hitting. I would never do that to you." He will be praying every day to Buddha for this wonderful karma. He must have done something very right in his last life.

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

"No hitting, okay, it might sound silly but I sometimes, kind of forget what I am doing when I get like that. I don't mind spanking, biting and wrestling too, so I think that works out well." Beaming she wraps her arms around him and then tilts her head back to wash out her hair. "We should have a safe word."

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"Ooh, spanking." He grins mischievously. "You have a very nice bottom for that. Nice and curvy." He tilts forward to rinse his own head. "Safe word?" He looks rather confused.

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

Looking over her shoulder at her bottom, she laughs. "I don't have much of a butt but thank you!" Her fingers move through his hair, getting the soap from the strands. "Yes, a word that you say when you really want someone to stop. Something you wouldn't normally say during sex."

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"That will be difficult. When I am gone, my English is not very good. I would probably recognize a word from you, but I might forget my word." His eyes look a little wide at that.

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

Unable to help it, she giggled at his expression and then put a hand over her mouth. "We can pick a Japanese word for you, I would be able to pick it out. I really don't think I'll hurt you, but it's good to be safe." Laughing she kisses his shoulder.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"I think that would be best." He begins to soap her up, his hands caressing her skin with long strokes. He has a huge smile on his face. He loves it when she laughs.

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

"Mmmm. . .I love it when you wash me." Her body arches under his fingers, twisting and stretching so he could get every part of her. "It makes me feel like a cat." Silent for a moment she finally grinned at him once more. "I love you, don't forget that, okay?"

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"I can never forget that. No matter what happens." He rubs her thoroughly, even getting down on his knees to wash her legs and feet. He gets up and helps sluice water over her.

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

When he washes her feet she grabs a hold of the wall and giggles, she can't help it, it tickles! As he sets her down she makes sure that he is completely soap free also. "Is there anything else I should know, about what you like in bed?"

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"I have been with men before," he says quietly. "I am not certain how you feel about such things." He turns off the shower and steps out to grab a towel to wrap her in.

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

A look of surprise crosses over her face for a moment before she shrugs and takes the towel. Drying herself off, she hands him a towel also. "So? I've been with women before, do you still want to be with men now that we are together?" She has mixed feelings about this, but she has grown up knowing that she was just one in a long line of play things. At least with some honesty it might make things okay.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"No. Only you. I will only be with you. I thought you should know because you have the right to know. I do not 'step out' on the person I love. I am very much a one-person type of guy." He is extremely loyal, this he knows.

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

"Good," she confides in him, slowly drying his hair with the corner of her towel. The room is steamy but she can still see him easily, and she smiles brightly. "I'm loyal too, I don't want to be with anyone else. I don't even want to think about it, to be used in such a way." Her smile falters a little but she puts it back into place before kissing his cheek and moving out toward the main room.

"I don't have to worry about it now, your stuck with me, forever."

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"I do not think of it as 'stuck'. It will be my pleasure to be here for you, always." He finishes drying, then looks at his clothes. "I think semi-casual will be best." He pulls out his tan chinos and a white polo shirt. "This ok?"

He puts the clothes on the chair. "I only want you, Salome. Only you. I love you."

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

Sitting down in one of the hotel chairs, she lounges in the sun from the open patio door. Her feet up on the door frame, she shades her eyes and looks over at him, grinning. "Oh, very handsome, anata. Very."

Watching him, she puts her head back against the chair and nods. "I didn't mean it to sound like that, I guess I was just being silly. I know you love me, and I love you. Very much." She's grinning like an idiot when she speaks, her toes rubbing up and down his leg.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"Your father treated you like a thing he could use and throw away. You are too important to me. I will let you know every day how much you mean to me. Your father was completely wrong."

He kneels in front of the chair. "Trust me?"

[sweetsalome.livejournal.com]

Smiling brightly she nodded and lent forward, touching his cheek she pressed her lips to his. "I do, utterly and completely, I trust you. I know you would never hurt me, never use me. That's why I love you." Another light kiss as she brushes his hair away from his forehead before leaning back.

"You aren't like anyone I've ever met, and it's not just because you have an ability." Still grinning she watches him with such happiness and adoration in her eyes.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

"And I think we have a date with a restaurant on a pier where we can watch fish swim by." He gets to his feet and holds out his hand to help her out of the chair.
